C Cmaj7 F how long since i’ve gazed into dark eyes that melted my soul down C C C G to a place where it longs to be? Em F all of your history has little to do with your face A# F F F C G you’re mainly a mystery with violins filling in space C Cmaj7 F you stood in the nude by the mirror and picked out a rose , C C C G from the bouquet in our hotel C Cmaj7 F and lay down beside me again and i watched the rose , C C C G on the pillow as it fell Em F i sank and i slept in a twilight with only one care; A# F to know that when day broke and i woke , that you’d still be there , C you D still be there C Cmaj7 F the hours for once they passed slowly , unendingly by C C C G like a sweet breeze on a field C Cmaj7 F your gentleness came down upon me and i guess i thanked you , C C C G when you caused me to yield Em F we spoke not a sentence and took not a footstep beyond A# F our two days together which seemingly soon would be gone , C soon would be gone C Cmaj7 F don’t tell me of love everlasting and other sad dreams , C C C G i don’t want to hear C Cmaj7 F just tell me of passionate strangers who rescue each other C C C G from a lifetime of cares Em F because if love means forever , expecting nothing returned A# F then i hope i’ll be given another whole lifetime to learn , C ummmmmmm C Cmaj7 F because you gave to me oh so many things it makes me wonder; C C C G how they could belong to me? C Cmaj7 F and i gave you only my dark eyes that melted your soul down; C C C G to a place where it longs to be * alternate : C = A Cmaj7 = Amaj7 F = D G = E Em = C#m A# = G set8 http : //sites . google . com/site/Guitarmusicchordsandlyrics/
